Patient Testimonials
I've been coming here for over 20 years and it's over of the most friendly and personable places that you can find to get your eye care done. I take my entire family here for eye checkups and get new glasses. Their frame selection is varied and I would like to see more choices available but if you know what look you are going for you can show them and they can find something similar or order it for you. You can drop in and get your glasses adjusted or fixed. The staff is one of the greatest assets to this place and they are so friendly and know how to take care of you. The doctors are super nice as well and will take care of your eyes and suggest what you need.
